I just used an ordinary ring tin. With the hole in the middle of the tin, the centre of the cake cooks evenly and the cake is also abit higher. I use mine regularly for quick family cakes that I know will not last long eg. choc cake etc.
The cake has long been demolished, and the consensus on the flavour was like having "a crepe sprinkled with lemon and sugar". We all loved it, and it was very moist too.

Oh wow, divine!!  I used a lemon meringue diet yoghurt, and they are delicious as cupcakes :)

Oh Bron, we really loved this!
I think the lemon/sugar syrup really elevates this cake.
I did use 100g sugar for the lemon syrup, as the lemon I had was exceptionally tart!



I used greek yoghurt, and baked for 35 mins. in my oven.

Will definitely make again, thanks  :-*

Good work maddy - I love the look of that.  I love those cakes with citrus syrups drizzled on them. YUM YUM

Lovely looking cake Maddy.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

It sure does look good Maddy but I am not going to buy a bundt tin I keep telling myself - my plain old ring tin will have to do as I have no more room in my cupboards.

  ;D I remember saying the same thing Judy!  ;)
I will say that Harris Scalf do have some ripper sales on cake tins though  ;)

I thought I should bump this recipe for anyone who hasn't tried it, because everybody should!  It is just fantastic.

I've just made it for the second time .... first time was yesterday ..... should I admit there's only 2 of us?  Probably not!

Does anybody have a bigfatbelly smiley?
